The Gothic Tarot

The Gothic Tarot Cards offer a solid artistic experience for those who appreciate the dark and mysterious theme. The artwork is stunning and Consistent throughout the deck, making it a unique and visually appealing choice. However, while experienced tarot card readers may not find the illustrations problematic, newcomers to tarot may struggle with the lack of representation of card meanings. Additionally, some cards have minor printing damage, which can be seen as unprofessional. The accompanying booklet is a highlight, with its clearly written content by an experienced tarot card reader. It includes reversals, making it easier for those who use them. Although purchased used, the deck was in excellent condition, nearly brand new with only a few scuff marks. The artwork is truly beautiful, but some may not appreciate the blue striped borders and the copyright printed on the face of the cards, which can be trimmed if desired. The biggest downside of this deck is the poor quality of the cardstock, which feels thin and flimsy. Overall, The Gothic Tarot Cards are a worthy addition to any tarot card collection, showcasing captivating and dark artwork. However, for those intending to use the deck frequently, the subpar cardstock may pose a problem.
